‘Ditto’
Sahalie Angell Martin grew up on a sheep farm in Oregon. She has an MFA from the Ohio State University and teaches writing at the Fashion Institute of Technology in Manhattan. Her work has been featured in Hobart After Dark, The Superstition Review, and Writer's Digest.
‘Playing Pretend’
Shaira Sultana is a Canadian writer from Scarborough who was born and raised in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Her writing typically explores topics of heartbreak, love, family, and belonging. She has one published poem within Tint Journal’s Fall ‘25 Issue, titled “I’m from Elsewhere.” Aside from writing, her hobbies include befriending cats, crocheting, and escaping into the vast and wonderful world of books whenever she can.
‘Teachers’
Keith A. Dodson’s poems appeared in zines such as: Abbey, Asylum, Bogg, Catalyst, Chiron Review, Impetus, Lactuca, Pearl, Poetry Motel, Quick Brown Fox, Slipstream, and Wormwood Review. Recent poems have appeared in Beatnik Cowboy, Ink Nest, Jackdaw Review, Molecule, Myra’s Micros, Sheepshead Review, The Blotter, and The Argyle Lit Mag. Keith fondly remembers when typewriters ruled the world and "cut and paste" involved blue-lined graph paper, Xacto knives, and rubber cement. Like a submarine operating in The Small Press Sea for forty years, Keith spends much of his time submerged but does occasionally rise to periscope depth, search for a suitable target, fire a spread of torpedoes, and hope for a hit.
